2 June 2011. Alton, Hampshire, UK: On Saturday 28 May 2011, Broadcast Networks supported Sport1, the leading Dutch sports channel, to deliver live 3D coverage of the UEFA Champions League Final between Barcelona and Manchester United. Sport1′s 3D coverage of the game was carried on the pay TV services of UPC and Ziggo and was the first live 3D broadcast in the Netherlands. To celebrate the occasion, a full-house of 220 invited guests enjoyed the game in the comfort of the Bioswolff Cinema de Graaf, at an exclusive event co-hosted by Chellomedia and Sony.
Tom Haye, Managing Director of Broadcast Networks said “We were delighted to be invited by Chellomedia to be part of this prestigious event – it was a quality performance both on and off the pitch. Broadcast Networks is investing heavily in staff training to ensure we can effectively guide our customers through the adoption and deployment of 3D – from acquisition through to playout – and we are currently working on the design and build of a number of pioneering 3D systems solutions, including an OB vehicle for 3D sports production.”
